| Mariposa County, California |
The county's eastern half is the central portion of Yosemite National Park.
There are no incorporated cities in Mariposa County; however, there are three
communities recognized as census-designated places for statistical purposes.
Mariposa County was one of the original counties of California, created at the time of
statehood in 1850. While it began as the state's largest county, over time territory that
was once part of Mariposa was ceded to twelve other counties: Fresno, Inyo, Kern,
Kings, Los Angeles, Madera, Merced, Mono, San Benito, San Bernardino, San Luis Obispo,
and Tulare. Thus, Mariposa County is known as the "Mother of Counties".
The county took its name from Mariposa Creek, which was so named by Spanish
explorers in 1806, when they discovered great clusters of butterflies ("mariposas" in
Spanish) in the foothills of the Sierras. For many years, residents marked the annual
arrival (in May) of migrating Monarch butterflies with a "Butterfly Days" parade.
